- Method Detail
  - getMode
```
ExpansionKind getMode()
```
    Returns the value of the 'Mode' attribute. The default value is "iterative". The literals are from the enumeration ExpansionKind. The way in which the executions interact: parallel: all interactions are independent iterative: the interactions occur in order of the elements stream: a stream of values flows into a single execution
    
    Returns:
    
    the value of the 'Mode' attribute.
    
    See Also:
    
    ExpansionKind, setMode(ExpansionKind), UMLPackage.getExpansionRegion_Mode()
  - setMode
```
void setMode(ExpansionKind value)
```
    Sets the value of the 'Mode' attribute.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - the new value of the 'Mode' attribute.
    
    See Also:
    
    ExpansionKind, getMode()
  - getInputElements
```
MDWEList<ExpansionNode> getInputElements()
```
    Returns the value of the 'Input Element' reference list. The list contents are of type ExpansionNode. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Region As Input'. An object node that holds a separate element of the input collection during each of the multiple executions of the region.
    
    Returns:
    
    the value of the 'Input Element' reference list.

  - getInputElement
```
ExpansionNode getInputElement(String name,
                              Type type)
```
    Retrieves the first ExpansionNode with the specified 'Name', and 'Type' from the 'Input Element' reference list.
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - The 'Name' of the ExpansionNode to retrieve, or null.
    
    type - The 'Type' of the ExpansionNode to retrieve, or null.
    
    Returns:
    
    The first ExpansionNode with the specified 'Name', and 'Type', or null.

                              boolean ignoreCase)
```
    Retrieves the first ExpansionNode with the specified 'Name', and 'Type' from the 'Input Element' reference list.
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - The 'Name' of the ExpansionNode to retrieve, or null.
    
    type - The 'Type' of the ExpansionNode to retrieve, or null.
    
    ignoreCase - Whether to ignore case in String comparisons.
    
    Returns:
    
    The first ExpansionNode with the specified 'Name', and 'Type', or null.
    
    See Also:
    
    getInputElements()
  - getOutputElements
```
MDWEList<ExpansionNode> getOutputElements()
```
    Returns the value of the 'Output Element' reference list. The list contents are of type ExpansionNode. It is bidirectional and its opposite is 'Region As Output'. An object node that accepts a separate element of the output collection during each of the multiple executions of the region. The values are formed into a collection that is available when the execution of the region is complete.
    
    Returns:
    
    the value of the 'Output Element' reference list.
    
    See Also:

  - getOutputElement
```
ExpansionNode getOutputElement(String name,
                               Type type)
```
    Retrieves the first ExpansionNode with the specified 'Name', and 'Type' from the 'Output Element' reference list.
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - The 'Name' of the ExpansionNode to retrieve, or null.
    
    type - The 'Type' of the ExpansionNode to retrieve, or null.
    
    Returns:
    
    The first ExpansionNode with the specified 'Name', and 'Type', or null.

ExpansionNode getOutputElement(String name,
                               Type type,
                               boolean ignoreCase)
```
    Retrieves the first ExpansionNode with the specified 'Name', and 'Type' from the 'Output Element' reference list.
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - The 'Name' of the ExpansionNode to retrieve, or null.
    
    type - The 'Type' of the ExpansionNode to retrieve, or null.
    
    ignoreCase - Whether to ignore case in String comparisons.
